⁴⁵It is written, “The first man Adam became a living person.” The last Adam became a spirit that gives life.

Thus it is written, “The first man Adam became a living being”; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit.

So it is written: “The first man Adam became a living being”; the last Adam, a life-giving spirit.

So it is written, The first man Adam became a living being; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit.

The Scriptures tell us, “The first man, Adam, became a living person.” But the last Adam—that is, Christ—is a life-giving Spirit.

Thus also it is written, “The first man, Adam, became a living soul”; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit.

And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
